Zero Harm

In refusing to accept that accidents are inevitable in construction, Mansell has embraced the Zero Harm programme launched by our parent company Balfour Beatty in 2008.

Our target is to achieve Zero Harm across the company by 2012 and that means:

  • Zero fatalities
  • Zero injuries to the public
  • Zero permanently disabling injuries
  • No long term harm to health
  • An Accident Frequency Rate (AFR) of less than 0.1 by end of 2012

Mansell’s approach is to embed the Zero Harm principle in all of our processes. The crucial work we have already started on behavioural change, involving not only Mansell employees but also our supply chain partners, will help us make the step-changes necessary to achieve these objectives.

Above all, we’ll be calling on everyone to “Make Safety Personal”.

We will be using a “Zero Harm Journey Plan” to focus our activities and drive improvements. Regular udates on our progress will be published.

Industry Award Winners

The construction industry recognised our commitment to making a step-change in our approach to safety when we won the prestigious Health and Safety (major contractor) category at the Construction News Quality Awards.

 

The judges were most impressed with the high levels of engagement among the workforce in designing and delivering the MSP programme.
